Look at here and the people who complain about it being too hard to figure out are the ones complaining about “I can’t use muh slurs, this is awful.”

“The left of today is very much in favour of censorship to avoid “harm.” This makes those of us in the middle very wary of signing up to any partisan media.” /u/decidedlysticky23

/u/misshapensteed claims he isn’t far right, but explictly only posts on PoliticalCompassMemes and TheLeftCantMeme and KotakuInAction.

If they are too stupid to figure out we know they’re lying, they’re too stupid to figure out lemmy.

    like 4 times out of 5 when people decry things getting too political, what they’re really saying is they like things the way they are and they don’t want anyone to change anything

    Exactly. Everything is political; if saying or doing something is political, then not saying or doing it is also a political stance.

      “Apolitical” is just another form of conservatism. Not wanting to discuss politics, ever, is a form of saying “I don’t see what’s wrong with the system, it’s working just fine for me”

      Yes, and its why people who say they “aren’t into politics” frustrate and anger me; its a position of privilege.
